Watercolouring at life drawing again

“It’s challenging!” I think that’s all I need to say about trying to paint five and ten minute poses. The ten minute watercolour below was my best attempt.

The Body Builder

Venue: The Swedish Academy of Realist Art (SARA)

I enjoyed this two hour session last Thursday, I took it easy and did not stress. I have been practising my skin tones in a watercolour-paper- sketchbook, I think it is starting to have an affect, all the practice I do. I’m starting to feel more and more confident with each stroke of the brush, practice, practice. 
I haven’t been publishing much lately, I’m so busy with other things than art. Sweden is very much a place of two seasons, the ice has recently melted, I put the summer tyres on the car and this weekend it was the boat’s turn to be put in the water and the mast put on. Summer is coming! 🙂
